This project aims to provide the context of re-compensation to those in the
East Nile state, mainly in Marabe'a Al Shereef and Al Kiryab areas, who lost their
houses in the floods that has occurred during the period of August / September
2013. But specifically this project is analyzing the concept of 'Affordable / Low-
cost Housing Development in Sudan.
The main key initiatives and other strategies worth applauding and which
require immediate government intervention and civil society involvement to
accelerate housing supply are to be highlighted. The goal of the proposed project
is to improve the quality and quantity of affordable housing units for those with a
limited income, mainly those who lost their houses in the floods in Sudan in order
to boost economic growth and reduce poverty by providing suitable and
sustainable housing units for better settlement in both rural and urban areas of
Sudan. This affordable housing project's vision is to create an economically easily
accessible affordable housing project that will act as a model of sustainable
development addressing issues of population's economic status , environmental
quality while meeting needs of economically fragile group of the community .
This project targets the economically weak group, some with stable jobs and
some without. These groups will be offered opportunities to repay montages upon
acquisition of the structure.
The structures will be energy efficient with natural ventilation , lighting and
water recycling services in place. Modern building technologies will be used
alongside durable zero carbon emission building materials in this project.
